In the Closet

Class today took quite another interesting turn as we digressed into the costuming aspect of theater. Thinking to kill a few birds with one stone, our teacher found it advantageous for us to learn about costumes while doing a littler organization of our own. Since storage for costumes is limited at our school, there really isn't very much that we can keep. If you've ever stepped into the closet, you'll understand what I mean. What with the droning of the air conditioning to keep all the electrical outlets from burning out, you become distracted by the racks upon racks of clothing practically suffocating you. So today we took it upon ourselves to organize two or three of the racks into "costumes", menswear, womens' wear, and various sundry categories. Simultaneously, we were also prompted to keep an eye out for items that we could do without. Anything that was easily replaceable actually fell under this category, which made logical sense to me later. Besides organizing, there was also an avid search for any items that could possibly be used in our spring musical, Fiddler on the Roof. Peasanty items made up the majority of this category. Though we were able to get through all our racks today, there is still more to be left until the next Block Day. Until then, hats off to you.
